+ How much should I feed my dog?

We have a developed a proprietary algorithm to recommend a daily calorie amount and corresponding portion size based on your dog's specific profile (breed, weight, activity level, health issues, etc.). Take our quiz to determine your dog's personalized plan. In your trial box, we'll provide detailed instructions for how much to feed your dog.

You can also choose to mix Spot & Tango with your dog's current food by selecting the "Topper Plan" after completing the quiz. This is a great option for folks who want a healthy boost at a lower price.

+ What are the benefits of Spot & Tango?

Spot & Tango meals were developed by a leading team of veterinarians and animal nutritionists, and are complete & balanced for puppies & adults. Our food may help your dog lose weight, improve digestion, reduce allergies, and improve skin & coat, among a number of other health benefits. All of our recipes exclude artificial ingredients and wheat, soy, gluten typically found in commercial kibble. These additives are known culprits for a number of health related issues in dogs and cats.

+ What ingredients do you use?

We only use human-grade, fresh, locally-sourced ingredients in our food. It’s what we’re known for. Each recipe contains a protein, starch, fresh fruits and veggies, and a blend of all-natural vitamins and minerals. Nothing else. Ingredients are visible, nutritious, and of the very highest quality.

+ Why can't I just cook for my dog?

Many well-intentioned dog owners cook for their pups, and we're excited when people understand the benefits of a fresh, human-grade diet for dogs. That said, research has shown that over 95% of home-cooked dog food recipes do not meet the nutritional requirements for healthy dogs. Too few (or too many!) nutrients can result in serious complications. That's why Spot & Tango recipes were formulated by veterinarians and animal nutritionists -- so that you can sleep easy, knowing your best friend is getting exactly what they need.

+ Should I consult with my vet before switching Food?

While consulting with your veterinarian is not required to switch dog food, we encourage customers to contact their vet if they have any specific questions regarding their dog's dietary or nutritional needs.

+ How can I cancel or pause my weekly subscription?

You may cancel or pause your subscription at any time by emailing info@spotandtango.com. Each dog's meals are cooked fresh to order, so all cancellation requests must be submitted by 5:00pm EST on the day before your next order is processed.
